Update History

1.11

Alarmbot
- Alarmbot now deactivates if Killjoy is more than 40m away from it. Reentering the 40m range reactivates the ability.
- Range at which Alarmbot can be detected decreased from 9m >>> 7m.
- Cooldown after pickup reduced from 20 seconds >>> 7 seconds.
Nanoswarm
- Range at which Nanoswarm can be detected decreased from 5m >>> 3.5m
- Damage increased from 40/s >>> 45/s
- Damage now ticks smoother and faster while in Nanoswarm, instead of in chunks of 10 every 1/4 of a second.
Turret
- Turret now deactivates if Killjoy is more than 40m away from it. Reentering the 40m range reactivates the ability.
- Cooldown after pickup reduced from 20 seconds >>> 10 seconds.

1.07

Nanoswarm
- Added a brief windup before damage begins.
- DPS reduced from 60 >>> 40.
- Visual effects have been added to make it easier to spot the grenade on the ground Stealth audio range has been slightly increased
  - Killjoy's Nanoswarm has been a terror to play against. It’s meant to be a strong stalling and post plant tool—but we feel it’s currently dealing far too much damage and players aren’t able to engage in the desired counterplay.
Turret
- No longer revealed by Sova’s Recon Bolt
- More effectively shoots at an enemy’s last known location
